I have heard both good and bad about the super bands for the flippers. I think I'm going to try a set anyways, but has anyone tried the post sleeves? I'm tempted to give them a try but I'm a little afraid they will just be too bouncy and zing the ball back around instead of absorbing some of the impact and slowing the ball down a little.
If you are talking about the little super bands that fit on the posts I have several on my machines (5). I am not real sure there is that much of a difference in play (bounce) but they sure look better. Especially the red and green.
yes pinball life sells them: http://www.pinballlife.com/index.php?p=product&id=3304
Quoted from RobKnapp:Mine I ordered from Marco did nit fit the post on my X-Men LE that have cliffy's rubber on them . the super bands were to large in circomfreince Spelling error .
You may have gotten the ones for bally/williams games. It appears there is a seperate part number for DE/sega/stern games
I've had them on my Scared Stiff for quite awhile and really like them. They are MUCH bouncier though, so what works for my taste (always looking to speed things up) may not be what you are looking for. All in all they look great and add some speed and nastiness to gameplay.
